Chapter 409: Judgement Sword_1
Most of the nobility had confessed their crimes.
But Saima Lynch still stood there, hesitant in the face of the excited crowd, afraid of Holley’s reprisal and terrified that the angry people would tear her to pieces.
Suddenly, Holley’s voice rang in her ear, "Saima, do you acknowledge your guilt?"
Saima jolted, reflexively stepping forward facing Duge and yelled, "I am guilty, I should not have conspired with my father to frame Holley Alaus for my own selfish interests. Please, Holley, forgive my sins..."
As she spoke,
Tears were already streaming down her cheeks, her face filled with remorse and sorrow.
But upon closer inspection, her gaze towards Duge was filled with horror.
Saima Lynch’s body was trembling uncontrollably.
She wanted to close her mouth, or to say something else, but no matter what, she couldn’t stop; her mouth seemed to no longer belong to her.
Moreover, after confessing to framing Holley, she didn’t stop, but with tears streaming down, she continued, "King Holley, I am guilty. While practicing magic, I destroyed my father’s beloved magic wand, yet I blamed my magic teacher, Lantennes, resulting in him being punished by my father. Here, I confess to him, hoping he can forgive my ignorance..."
Duke Linqi looked at his daughter with surprise, frowning slightly. What’s happening?
Hadn’t they agreed to only talk about framing Holley?
